Rezensionen

"The book raises discussions and arguments broad enough to illuminate the function of education in culturally, economically and socially diversified settings. I believe the book is one of the key references for various related discussions in educational research such as social justice, disadvantaged groups, multiculturalism, and minorities in education."
- Yasar Kondakci, Associate Professor in Educational Administration and Planning, Middle East Technical University, Ankara, Turkey

"The authors offer...a comprehensive overview and in-depth insights into the obstacles and challenges [facing] the Palestinian Arab minority in Israel and abroad in higher education. A 'must read' for anyone interested in minority studies in higher education."
- Jeroen Huisman, Professor of Higher Education at Ghent University, Belgium, and Editor of Higher Education Policy

'Drawing on a wide range of fascinating empirical material, this book provides a detailed account of the experiences of Palestinian Arabs in accessing higher education in Israel and beyond. [This] book makes a significant contribution to both academic and policy debates.'
- Rachel Brooks, Professor and Head of the Department of Sociology, University of Surrey, UK, and Executive Editor, British Journal of Sociology of Education.

'Well-written and comprehensive in coverage...this extraordinary study will contribute to the field of higher education...not only in Israel but all over the world.'
- Selahattin Turan, Professor of Educational Leadership and Policy, Eski?ehir Osmangazi University, Turkey and President, ECO Educational Institute in Ankara.
